Calreticulin (CALR) mutations are detected in around 20% of patients with primary and post-essential thrombocythemia myelofibrosis (MF). Regardless of driver mutations, patients with splenomegaly and symptoms are generally treated with JAK2-inhibitors, most commonly ruxolitinib. Recently, new therapies specifically targeting the CALR mutant clone have entered clinical investigation.

To investigate the effect of ten-eleven translocation methylcytosine dioxygenase 2 (TET2) gene mutations on the secondary myelofibrosis (SMF) of JAK2 myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN) patients. A retrospective collection was conducted on MPN patients with JAK2 mutation detected by second-generation sequencing in the Department of Hematology, the Second Hospital of Tianjin Medical University. TET2JAK2 MPN patients were selected as the mutant group, and TET2JAK2 MPN patients matched for age and gender were selected as the non-mutant group.

Single-nucleotide variants (SNVs) and polymorphisms are characteristic biomarkers in various biological contexts, including pathogen drug resistances and human diseases. Tools that lower the implementation barrier of molecular SNV detection methods would provide greater leverage of the expanding single-nucleotide polymorphism/SNV database. The oligonucleotide ligation assay (OLA) is a highly specific means for detection of known SNVs and is especially powerful when coupled with PCR.

SH2B1β is a multifunctional scaffold protein that modulates cytoskeletal processes such as cellular motility and neurite outgrowth. To identify novel SH2B1β-interacting proteins involved in these processes, a yeast two-hybrid assay was performed. The C-terminal 159 residues of the cytoskeleton structural protein, βIIΣ1-spectrin, interacted with the N-terminal 260 residues of SH2B1β, a region implicated in SH2B1β enhancement of cell motility and localization at the plasma membrane.

Background: Pulmonary embolism causes a substantial burden of morbidity and mortality. Although there are several well-established risk factors for pulmonary embolism, a substantial proportion of cases cannot be attributed to provoked or known risk factors. Accumulating evidence has suggested an association of clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP) with the risk of arterial thromboembolism.
